1,2,7,14,37,74,259,518
Factors of 589
List of positive integer factors of 589 that divides 589 without a remainder.
1,19,31,589
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 518,589 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 518,589 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 9049,9602
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 86888498
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/86888498
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 518/9049,589/9602 is 1/86888498
The formula of LCM is LCM(a1,a2,a3....,an) = ( a1 × a2 × a3 × .... × an) / GCF(a1,a2,a3....,an) x common factors(if more than 2 numbers have common factors).
We need to calculate greatest common factor of 9049,9602 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(9049,9602) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(9049,9602) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(9049,9602) = ( 9049 × 9602 ) / 1
LCM(9049,9602) = 86888498 / 1
LCM(9049,9602) = 86888498
